28 Mar 2022
23 Aug 2022 – Washington dumped three more provocations simultaneously on the Kremlin. The signal it consistently sends is aggression.

On the Edge of a Nuclear Abyss
Edward Curtin | Behind the Curtain – TRANSCEND Media Service,
14 Mar 2022
10 Mar 2022 – To grasp this possibility within the context of Ukraine, we need to put aside all talk of morality, rights, international law, and think in terms of great power politics.
